While most fans would salivate at the prospect of
having an assortment of villains to choose from, it comes
down to a simple matter of economics and the popular-
ity of the “Spider-Man” TV show. “It’s a business decision,”
Falcon explains. “Sidekicks don’t get as much air time as
Spider-Man and therefore the majority of the people
who buy our toys, the kids [ages] five and up, aren’t going
to recognize these characters as well as they would rec-
ognize a variation of Spider-Man.”
Adds Lopez: “There might be a really cool villain—
take Carrion, for example. He’s a villain [comic fans like]

NOW TO BURY
STEP #10: The Final Details MY BOOT IN SOME
For the belt, use a rotary cutter to cut a strip RATZI ASs/
of yellow leather. Lay your leather out flat on
a cutting board and lay a straight edge, close
to the edge. Establish a straight cut. Now,
slide your straight edge back enough to cut a
strip that will fit through our buckle. (Since it’s
next to impossible to find these mini-belt
buckles in a regular store, | suggest using the
Kathy’s Creations store | list in the “Parts is
Parts” sidebar.) Also cut some strips of red
about 1/8” or less wide for his belt loops.
Now, paint your miniature buckle yellow.
After it’s dry, slide it onto the yellow belt.
Cut your red strips of leather into six to eight
pieces. Begin by gluing, face up, the red strips
of leather to the back side of the belt, in even
increments on either side of the buckle. Then
stretch them around the face of the belt, trim
off the excess, and glue down the other side.
Put a dab of Super glue at the front cen-
ter of the waist of your Super-Soldier figure,
and press the underside of the buckle into
the glue. Now stretch the ends of the belt
around the back of the figure and trim off the
excess, letting one end overlap slightly. Then
just glue it in place.
The cuffs on the boots can be fashioned
out of excess red leather and glued into place.
Finally, the last thing to do is put the stars
on the costume. For this, we’ll use some 3M
sign vinyl. You’ve probably seen people driv-
ing around with messages across their wind-
shields. Well, the same place that cuts these
custom messages can cut some stars for you
or sell you some scrap vinyl you can use to
design your own stars.
Trace out your shape on the vinyl. This
stuff is very thin, so it’s easy to cut.
Cut out your star, peel off the backing
and place it on the chest. Once positioned,
hold a blow dryer on it and gently rub it down.
Repeat for the star on the hero’s back. The
heat helps the vinyl’s adhesive activate, and
also allows your star to conform to the con-
tour of the body.

Here’s the rundown on how Mike made his versions of
DC’s superteens from the 30th century: Chameleon is a
Toy Biz Super-Poseable Spider-Man; Shrinking Violet is a
repainted Toy Biz Spider-Woman; Live Wire is made
from a ’Biz Spider-Man and a Transforming Lamont
Cranston from Kenner’s The Shadow line; Cosmic Boy
is a retooled Toy Biz Silver Surfer; Andromeda and
Kinetix are both repainted Toy Biz Phoenix figures; and
Brainiac 5 is made from a Toy Biz Mr. Fantastic. Super-
boy is unchanged from Kenner’s Superman: Man of
Steel line, and we have no clue what Saturn Girl is
made from because Mike’s a weenie and didn’t tell
us. But otherwise, great job, Mike!
KERMIT SPAWN
Lukas Kristjanson, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Awww...how cute! We wonder how Miss Piggy
would feel if she knew her beloved Kermie was a
Spawn from hell. This lil guy was made with a
McDonald’s Happy Meal Kermit the Frog and some
parts from a real Spawny-Guy action figure.
gt ed
Jesse Gonzalez, Anaheim, Calif.
Here’s a scene you never saw in Marvel Versus DC.
Is it sacreligious or just plain funny? Who cares—
it’s just a nifty ceramic sculpture customized with
modeling clay and repainted to bring the Big Two’s
characters together for their own last supper.
1997 SPECIAL 65
COMMISSIONER GORDON
Daniel Soucy, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Looking better than any of the other Kenner Bane figures,
this pumped-up Bane was made from an old Mattel
Masters of the Universe He-Man body, a Toy Biz Spider-
Man head and some leather. Zsasz was made from
Kenner’s Batman Returns Bruce Wayne/Batman figure,
and Commissioner Gordon comes from a Toy Biz DC
Super-Heroes Two-Face body, a Toy Biz Magneto | head and
a coat from Mattel’s 12-inch Battlestar Galactica Starbuck.
WONDER WOMAN
Peter Temple, Vallejo, Calif.
This here buffed Wonder Woman action figure is just a
repainted She-Dragon from Playmates’ Savage Dragon line.

With this sucker either shipping or due to ship any day now, fan anticipation is at
an all-time high. As one of the four figures fans have wanted for decades (along with
Darth Vader with removable helmet, Grand Moff Tarkin and Slave-girl Leia, the lat-
ter two actually under production), Spirit Ben is an exclusive Lay’s Potato Chips
mail-in offer (for just two specially marked Lay’s proofs-of-purchase and $1.99) sim-
